Scientist discovered that diamonds under pressure behave like water during freezing and melting, and that chunks of diamond will float in the liquid diamond which leads them to think that Neptune and Uranus may have diamond icebergs floating atop liquid diamond seas.

Reminds me of the Doctor Who episode “Midnight” with diamond waterfalls.

    Lol, that Episode’s the first thing that came to mind.
    I wonder if those diamonds are toxic or harmful in anyway. Otherwise I’m seeing mining operations in the not to distant future.

    And I want me some diamond….while they still cost something that is….or else that are just sharp and annoying…
